Missoula County supports HB 16, Establish affordable housing loan program, being heard tomorrow morning in House Taxation. The bill creates a housing loan program for the development and preservation of homes and apartments for low- and moderate-income Montanans (households earning up to 95% of the Area Median Income). The program would be funded with $15 million from the coal tax trust fund and would be administered by the Board of Housing. The program will provide necessary gap financing for affordable housing developments and will leverage other public and private investments.
Missoula County supports HB 16: Establish affordable housing loan program, up for hearing in the Senate Taxation Committee tomorrow morning. The bill would create a housing loan program for the development and preservation of homes and apartments for low- and moderate-income Montanans (households earning up to 95 percent of the area median income). The program would be funded with $15 million from the coal tax trust fund and would be administered by the Board of Housing. The program will provide necessary financing for affordable housing developments and will leverage other public and private investments.
Missoula County continues to support HB 16, HB 126, and HB 481, as amended, on the House floor this afternoon. HB 16 would create a housing loan program for the development and preservation of homes and apartments for low- and moderate-income Montanans (households earning up to 95 percent of the area median income). The program will provide necessary financing for affordable housing developments and will leverage other public and private investments. The proposed fee increase in HB 126 would help offset ongoing personnel and operations costs and support the county’s efforts to digitally preserve the remaining 85,000 vital records that exist in books that continue to deteriorate. With the changes made in committee, HB 481 clarifies that “bona fide private social clubs” that are not places of work may allow smoking when they are located in separate buildings, detached from other places of employment and enclosed public spaces. We also support the amendment that would exclude anyone under age 21 from these clubs.
